Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims or are specified below in connection with the description of the figures.

The invention includes the technical teaching that in a scanning element for a locking core of a locking cylinder for scanning the presence of a sufficient undercut profile rib of a key inserted into a locking channel of the locking core, comprising a base body which has an inside which, when used in a locking core, points towards the locking channel, and an outside which, when used in a locking core, for contacting a locking pin such as a housing pin and/or a cylinder wall of a cylinder bore of a surrounding cylinder housing, it is provided that the base body has a core pin receptacle designed as a through opening in order to receive a core pin of the lock cylinder there when used in a locking cylinder. The base body has a through opening. The through opening is preferably formed centrally in the base body. The through opening extends from the outside to the inside or vice versa. The longitudinal axis of the through opening is preferably aligned perpendicular to the inside. The through opening preferably has a shape that is complementary to the outer contour of the core pin. In particular, the through opening has a cylindrical shape. The tactile projection or tactile projections protrude to the side next to the exit of the through opening on the inside. The scanning element is preferably formed in one piece, in particular as a cast or injection molded part. If there are several tactile projections, these are preferably the same, that is to say of the same length and with the same contour. In other embodiments, the plurality of tactile projections are at least partially unequal, that is to say of different lengths and/or of different shapes. When used in a locking cylinder, the locking core is arranged in the locking core receptacle. The locking core is arranged in the locking core receptacle when the locking core receptacle and the core pin bore are arranged coaxially and rotated relative to one another.

According to the invention, at least one tactile projection protrudes from the inside of the base body, which is provided for contacting a key section of a key inserted into the locking channel, wherein in one embodiment the outside of the base body is at least partially rounded and / or has at least two differently inclined side sections or bevels.

The at least one scanning element is preferably made in one piece. In other embodiments, the scanning element can consist of several parts, for example a separate base body and separate tactile projections. With a one-piece In this embodiment, the scanning element is preferably designed as a die-cast part or produced by die-casting. For manufacturing reasons, at least one recess for a sprue and overflow is provided on the scanning element. A recess is preferably provided at each end of a sensing projection. More preferably, at least one recess is provided on the base body, preferably two diametrically opposed recesses. The base body has an inside and an outside. The inside is preferably designed as a plane, in particular as a flat plane. From the inside, i.e. the flat plane, the tactile projection or the tactile projections protrude, in particular vertically. In a multi-part design, receptacles for tactile projections can be provided, from which the tactile projection or tactile projections protrude from the inside. Opposite the inside is the outside of the base body. When used in a cylinder bore of a locking cylinder, the outside is designed in such a way that it can be rotated within the cylinder bore or can be slid along the wall of the cylinder bore. For this purpose, it is provided that the outside or the base body has a contour which at least approximates the cylindrical shape of the cylinder bore. For this purpose, the base body can be rounded on the outside, for example also rounded with different radii. In another embodiment, the base body is beveled, in particular beveled with at least two different bevels. The radius of the rounding or the slope of the bevel preferably increases from the inside towards the outside.

According to the invention it is provided that the base body, in particular starting on an outside, has a core pin receptacle for receiving and/or interacting with a core pin. The receptacle is preferably designed as a through opening, more precisely as a through hole, in particular as a cylindrical through hole. The receptacle penetrates the base body from the outside to the inside. The recording is adapted to a contour of a core pin. The receptacle is preferably arranged in the middle. In addition to the inside and the outside, the base body has two additional sides. The two further sides are preferably designed parallel to one another as planes, in particular as flat planes. The outside almost merges into the inside, so that the base body essentially has four sides - outside, inside, two side sides. The transition from the outside to the inside takes place via side transitions that are smaller in area.

Another embodiment provides that two diagonally opposite tactile projections that are spaced apart from one another in the plane of the inside protrude from the inside of the base body. In one embodiment, the tactile projections are formed in one piece with the base body. In another embodiment, the tactile projections are designed separately from the base body and are connected to it. The scanning element has at least one sensing projection. The scanning element preferably has two sensing projections. The tactile projections preferably protrude approximately vertically from the inside. Preferably, the at least one tactile projection is cylindrical, for example designed as a cylindrical pin or cylindrical pin section. However, the tactile projection can also have other shapes, particularly depending on the tactile function. The scanning element is intended to be inserted or inserted into a locking core in order to take on a tactile function there. The tactile projections are preferably of the same length. In other embodiments, the tactile projections are of different lengths.

The invention also includes the technical teaching that in a locking core for a locking cylinder it is provided that the locking core has a profiled locking channel for interaction with a key, more precisely a side key profile, the locking core having at least one core pin hole which opens into the locking channel , and wherein the locking core has a receiving space for a scanning element for scanning an undercut, in particular a sufficiently undercut, profile rib of a key inserted into the locking channel, the receiving space having a base space in which a base body of the scanning element can be inserted or is inserted, and one has a projection space connected to the base space to form the receiving space, which laterally breaks through at least partially, in particular over 8 percent of the total length of the projection space, into the closing channel, into which a sensing projection of the sensing element projects when the sensing element is inserted, the base space and/or the projection space in In the direction of the axis of the core pin bore, a larger scanning dimension than the base body and/or than the sensing projection when the sensing element is inserted, so that a sensing space is realized at least in the projection space in which, when the sensing element is inserted, it can be moved in the direction of the axis of the core pin bore, provided a key section protruding into the sensing area, no undercut profile rib blocking the movement having. The scanning element of the locking core is designed as a scanning element described here. A locking core with a profiled locking channel and core pin hole, also with core pins and housing pins, generally with locking pins but without a receiving space, is basically known from the prior art. The receiving space is designed to accommodate a scanning element. The receiving space is adapted to the contour of the scanning element, with tolerances being provided so that the scanning element can be moved within the receiving space at least in one direction, preferably an axial direction, of the core bore. Accordingly, the receiving space has a base space that is adapted to the base body of the scanning element, and a projection space that is adapted to the tactile projection or tactile projections. The receiving space and the projection space are dimensioned larger in the axial direction of the core hole than the base body or the respective sensing projection, so that a degree of freedom for movement of the scanning element in the axial direction of the core bore is possible. The receiving space in the axial direction of the core bore is dimensioned to be one scanning dimension larger than the corresponding area of the scanning element. A space is thus formed for a stroke of the scanning element. The projection space breaks through into the locking channel, so that an (undercut) profile rib of an inserted profiled key can or projects through the locking channel into the projection space, more precisely into a sensing space which is defined in the axial direction of the core bore by the scanning dimension. The projection space and/or the scanning space breaks through laterally into the closing channel by at least 8 percent of the total length of the projection space and/or the scanning space. In particular, the lateral breakthrough is at least 10 percent, preferably at least 15 percent, even more preferably at least 20 percent and most preferably at least 40 percent of the total length of the projection space and/or the scanning space. Essentially, the projection space/scanning space breaks through laterally into the locking channel.

In one embodiment it is provided that the scanning dimension or the scanning space is dimensioned such that when a key is inserted with a sufficiently undercut profile rib, the profile rib projects into the scanning space, in particular protrudes laterally into the scanning space, and when the scanning projection protrudes into the scanning space sufficiently undercut profile rib of the key, the outside of the base body at least in the area of the core pin hole is flush with the outer contour of the area of the housing pin and / or cylinder housing surrounding the core pin hole closes so that the housing pin is prevented from penetrating into the receiving space. In the case of a key with an undercut profile rib, the front part of the profile rib protrudes from the tip to the undercut, more precisely with an overhang of the undercut profile rib into the tactile area. When used in the closing channel in the axial direction of the core bore, the profile rib has a profile dimension which is smaller or equal to, preferably approximately in the order of magnitude of the scanning dimension and smaller. Accordingly, the part of the profile rib between the tip or outer end and the undercut can protrude into the scanning space and be scanned there by the scanning element. Due to the undercut, an excess, projection or overhang of the profile rib is formed at the tip of the profile rib, which is queried or scanned in the scanning space. For profile ribs without undercut, this excess dimension is smaller than the measuring dimension up to 0 mm. The sensing space is therefore not or only insufficiently occupied by the profile rib or the sensing projection does not strike the profile rib but rather the end wall of the projection space away from the base space. The base body therefore also borders on an inner wall of the receiving space and the flanks of the receiving space create an offset in the area of the locking pin, more precisely the housing pin, around which the housing pin can penetrate into the receiving space. This prevents the locking core from rotating in the cylinder bore of the locking cylinder beyond a certain angle of rotation when used in the locking cylinder. The angle of rotation is determined by the size of the recording space. The present invention allows the locking core to rotate back and not be caught in its twisted position. This means that even a key with an insufficiently undercut profile/profile rib can be pulled out of the locking channel after turning it back. Sufficiently undercut therefore describes an overhang formed by an undercut, which occupies a scanning space in such a way that an adjacent scanning element inhibits rotation of the locking core from a predetermined angle of rotation. Such undercuts or corresponding overhangs have a dimension in the axial direction of the core pin bore which is preferably over 0.1 mm, more preferably over 0.2 mm and most preferably over 0.3 mm. Preferably, the dimension is preferably smaller than 5 mm, more preferably smaller than 4 mm and most preferably smaller than 3 mm. However, depending on the dimensions of the locking core, key, etc., the dimensions can also take on different values. An undercut profile rib is therefore always to be understood as a sufficiently undercut profile rib that has an overhang which the touch function can be implemented. The rib preferably protrudes through the side opening into the scanning space/protrusion space.

The invention provides that the scanning element of the locking core is designed according to a scanning element described above. In one embodiment it is provided that the receiving space of the locking core is adapted to the scanning element for receiving the scanning element with provision of the scanning space and movement back and away to the scanning space. The receiving space is preferably designed to be complementary to the scanning element, but also has the scanning dimension or the stroke, that is to say it is larger in the axial direction of the core bore than the scanning element or the scanning projection. This allows a linear movement in the axial direction of the core hole.

In addition, the invention includes the technical teaching that in a scanning mechanism for a locking cylinder, with a locking core which has a locking channel into which a corresponding key can be inserted, which has at least one core pin hole designed as a through opening and which has a receiving space in which a scanning element is accommodated, it is provided that the scanning element has a core pin receptacle aligned with the core pin bore, a core pin being receivable and/or accommodated in the at least one core pin bore and the core pin receptacle, the receiving space forming a sensing space which breaks through into the locking channel or protrudes into the locking channel, so that a corresponding key section of a key inserted into the locking channel protrudes or can protrude into the sensing space, so that the scanning element in the area of the sensing space strikes or can strike against the corresponding key section protruding into the sensing space, the sensing space being dimensioned in this way that if the corresponding key section has a sufficiently undercut profile rib, the scanning element rests on the one hand on the profile rib and on the other hand is at least partially flush with an outside of the locking core and if the key section does not have a sufficiently undercut profile rib, the scanning element is offset when it hits the key section , in particular is arranged offset inwards to the outside of the locking core. The scanning element is designed according to a scanning element described here. The scanning mechanism works as follows. A key is inserted into the locking channel of the locking core. On a key with a (sufficiently) undercut profile rib, the front part of the profile rib protrudes, preferably the bowl section from the tip to the undercut of the profile rib, especially the overhang, into the sensing space. With the key section or overhang protruding into the sensing space, the key section adjoins the sensing projection associated in the axial core drilling direction. As a result, the scanning element is pressed outwards in the axial direction of the core bore towards the wall of the cylinder bore, thereby preventing an offset between the outside and the flanks of the receiving space. The housing pin adjoins the outside without preventing rotation of the locking core in the cylinder bore. On the other hand, when using a key without a (sufficiently) undercut profile rib, the rotational movement is blocked from a certain angle of rotation. The key without a (sufficiently) undercut profile rib is inserted into the locking channel. The corresponding profile rib protrudes at most into the sensing space to a small extent, whereby the corresponding sensing projection rests either on the end wall of the sensing space or on the part of the profile rib that is not (sufficiently) undercut that is not sufficient for blocking. As a result, a shoulder is formed in the area of the outside of the base body to the adjacent circumference of the cylinder core, so that the housing pin can partially penetrate into the receiving space and a rotational movement is blocked by abutting the flanks of the receiving space from a predetermined angle of rotation. The locking core cannot be rotated further in a direction to open, but only back to the starting position in which the key was inserted into the locking channel. The receiving space is preferably designed symmetrically to the core bore, so that rotation in and counterclockwise is possible, limited by the corresponding dimension of the receiving space. The core pin is always accommodated in the core pin receptacle of the base body. The core pin penetrates the core pin receptacle of the base body and protrudes over the base body in the direction of the key. On the outside of the base body, the core pin closes with the outer contour if there is a sufficiently undercut profile rib on a key in the twisted state or protrudes beyond the outer contour of the outside if there is a key with an insufficiently undercut profile rib. When twisted, the core pin adjoins the wall of the locking core bore on the outside of the base body.

In one embodiment it is provided that a pin element prestressed in the direction of the locking core acts in the direction of the scanning element. The pin element is designed as a locking pin with a core pin and a housing pin. The housing pin is via a spring preloaded and pushes towards the cylinder core, which also forces the core pin in the same direction. The spring and housing pin are accommodated in a corresponding receptacle in the cylinder housing. The core pin is accommodated in the core hole of the locking core. Without the key inserted, the housing pin protrudes into the core hole. The core drilling continues from the receiving space towards the center of the locking core. Accordingly, the housing pin is always forced into the receiving space unless an inserted key counteracts it.

A further embodiment provides that the locking core is designed according to a locking core described here.

The invention also includes the technical teaching that in a locking cylinder, comprising a cylinder housing which has a locking core bore in which a locking core is rotatably accommodated, it is provided that the locking core has a locking channel and at least one core pin bore opening into the locking channel Cylinder housing has at least one pin channel formed transversely to the locking core bore, opening into the locking core bore and aligned into the core bore, and wherein a pin unit with a housing pin spring-loaded in the direction of the locking core and a core pin lying in the core bore and adjacent to the housing pin, the locking core has a receiving space with a sensing space in which a sensing element movable axially to the locking core bore is arranged, the sensing element having a core pin receptacle aligned with the core pin bore for receiving the core pin, the receiving space being at least partially broken through in the area of the sensing space to the locking channel, in particular closed at least 8 percent of the total length of the scanning space and/or the projection space is pierced laterally, so that a key section protrudes laterally into the sensing space of the receiving space when the key is inserted into the locking channel, the receiving space and/or the sensing space being/are dimensioned such that Scanning element in the receiving space can be moved axially to the core pin bore if a key section without (sufficient) undercut protrudes into the locking channel and/or into the sensing space and/or in particular a locking core is designed according to a locking core described here, which is received in the locking core bore . The key section, in particular the undercut profile rib, protrudes through the side Breakthrough into the sampling space/projection space. The scanning element is designed according to a scanning element described here.

In one embodiment it is provided that a scanning mechanism is provided according to a scanning mechanism described here.

The invention further includes the technical teaching that in a locking system comprising a locking cylinder, in particular a locking cylinder described here and/or a scanning element, in particular a scanning element described here and/or a scanning mechanism, in particular a scanning mechanism described here and/or a locking core , in particular a locking core described here, it is provided that a locking channel is provided and a key suitable for a locking channel, in particular a locking channel of the locking cylinder, the locking core and / or the scanning mechanism, is provided.

In one example it is provided that the key is designed to be free of undercuts. The key therefore has no (sufficiently dimensioned) overhang.

In another example it is provided that the key is designed with at least one undercut. The key therefore has a (sufficiently dimensioned) overhang.

The locking system works to a certain extent with both undercut-free and undercut keys. With undercut-free keys, the locking core can be turned up to a predetermined angle of rotation C and no further, but back again. The undercut-free key can be removed from the lock cylinder after being turned back and is not caught. With an undercut key with a corresponding overhang, the locking core can be rotated beyond the predetermined angle of rotation C and the complete locking function can be implemented.

A further example provides that the undercut is dimensioned in the axial direction of a locking core bore such that a scanning element adjacent to a profile rib having the undercut is flush with an outside of the core pin on another side.

Last but not least, the invention includes the technical teaching that in a method for scanning an undercut profile rib of a key inserted into a locking channel of a locking core, in particular a locking core described here, a locking core described here, a scanning mechanism described here, a locking core described here, a locking core described here Locking cylinder and / or a locking system described here, it is provided that the steps include: inserting a key into the locking channel of the locking core, so that a key section, in particular a side key section, protrudes into a tactile space of a receiving space of the locking core, during insertion in the case that the key has a sufficiently undercut profile rib on the section that protrudes into the scanning space, the scanning element movably arranged in the scanning space is contacted and the scanning element is moved towards the outside of the locking core, so that the scanning element is flush or almost flush with the outside of the Locking core closes and in the event that the key in which the key section that protrudes into the scanning space does not have a sufficiently undercut profile rib, the scanning element movably arranged in the scanning space is contacted and the scanning element is at most moved in such a way that it is offset, in particular inwards is arranged offset in the direction of the scanning space.

One embodiment provides that the method is carried out with a locking core described here, a scanning mechanism described here, a locking cylinder described here, a key described here and/or a locking system described here.

In the illustrated embodiment, the locking system 1 comprises a lock cylinder 100 with an associated key 10. In the Fig. 1 the lock cylinder 100 is designed as a profile double cylinder. The locking cylinder 100 includes a cylinder housing 110, each of which consists of a cylinder opening 120 (see Fig. 2 ) having a circular cross-section Cylinder wall 112 and a web section 115 extending radially from it in the same material. A cylinder core or closing core 130 is arranged in each cylinder opening 120, which is axially fixed, for example, by means of a clamping ring. With its inner wall, the cylinder wall 112 forms a locking core bore 121 into which the locking core 130 is inserted. A (radially and axially) cut key channel or locking channel 150 is incorporated into the locking core 130, which is open to one side of the locking core 130, more precisely to a section of the outer circumference of the locking core 130, and is aligned with a longitudinal center plane of the web section 115. In a known manner, the locking core 130 accommodates at least two-part tumbler elements, tumbler pins, tumbler pins or generally pin elements or locking pins 20, which are arranged by profile grooves 12 and/or profile ribs 14, 15 of the key 10 on the key shaft side. To form the profile grooves 12 on the key shaft side, the key 10 has correspondingly projecting profile projections, here in the form of profile ribs 14, 15. The core-side ends of the locking pins 20 (in Fig. 2 only one locking pin 20 is shown as an example) protrude into the locking channel 150 with a limited stop. However, such locking pins 20 are known, so they will not be discussed in more detail. A locking lever 50 is accommodated in a locking lever groove 30 about an axis of rotation of the cylinder wall 112. This is rotated about the axis of rotation when a key 10 that matches the locking profile, that is, with a key 10 with a corresponding key profile and profile grooves 12 and/or profile ribs 14, 15 on the key shaft side that match the locking pins 20, and thus realizes a locking function of the lock cylinder 100, which is generally known. The key 10 has, among other things, a key shaft 11 on which the key profile and, in other embodiments, the permutation drill troughs are formed.

Fig. 2 shows schematically the embodiment of the lock cylinder 100 in a perspective exploded view Fig. 1 with components intended for a scanning function without a key 10. Accordingly, the closing profile of the locking channel 150 can be seen more clearly. This has recesses, depressions and/or projections which, on the one hand, run along a main extent of the closing channel 150 and which here extend from a central plane Z (see Fig. 5 ) are formed on both sides of the plane Z. This means that the profile ribs (recesses, depressions, overhangs) 14, 15 are worked out from both sides towards the central plane Z. About the course along the main extension of the closing channel 150, the closing profile can vary. In addition to the core (pin) holes 160 for the locking pins 20, more precisely for the core pins 21, the locking core 130 has a receiving space 170 for a scanning element 180. One of the core bores 160 runs through the receiving space 170. The scanning element 180 has a receptacle 171 for a core pin 21. The core pin 21 is thus accommodated in the receptacle 171 penetrating it and protruding into the corresponding core bore 160 in the receptacle 171 and the locking core 130. The core pin 21 is part of the multi-part locking element or locking pin 20, which also includes a compression spring 22 and a housing pin 23.

Fig.3 shows schematically in a side view an embodiment of the key 10 for the lock cylinder 100 Fig. 1 . The key 10 has profile grooves 12 and (profile) ribs 14, 15 to form the key profile. The key 10 after Fig. 3 has two (sufficiently) undercut profile ribs 14a, 15a, as in Fig. 4 can be seen more clearly.

Fig. 4 shows schematically a cross section AA through the key 10 Fig. 3 . The cross section shows the key profile with the profile grooves 12 and the profile ribs 14, 15. Two of the profile ribs 15a have a sufficient undercut 17, so that an oblique profile rib 14a or an oblique profile groove 12a is formed by the profile rib 15a and the subsequent undercut 17.

Fig. 5 shows schematically the locking core 130 in a top view Fig. 2 . In the view, the core (pin) holes 160 and the receiving space 170 are clearly shown. One of the core (pin) bores 160 extends through the receiving space 170. The receiving space 170 has a base space 172 that is approximately rectangular in cross section in plan view and two projection spaces 174. The projection spaces 174 project away from the receiving space 170 near the outer surface of the locking core 130, radially inwards towards the center of the locking core 130 or also in the axial direction of the core (pin) bore 160. The core (pin) bore 160 is arranged approximately centrally in the receiving space 170. From the bottom of the receiving space 170, the projection spaces 174 lead inward in the axial direction of the core (pin) bore. The two projection spaces 174, which have a cylindrical shape, lie diametrically opposite one another in the plane of the bottom of the receiving space 170. An inner end at least one The projection space 174 breaks through into the closing channel 150, so that the closing channel 150 and the projection space 174 are connected to one another.

Fig. 6 shows schematically the cross section AA Fig. 5 . As can be clearly seen from the cross section, the projection space 174 breaks through into the closing channel 150. A scanning space 176 is formed in the area of the breakthrough. This has a scanning dimension A in the axial direction of the core (pin) hole (see Fig. 11 ), which is the height of the sampling space 176 or the stroke H (see Fig. 15 ) of the scanning element 170 is defined or corresponds to the stroke H.

Fig. 7 shows schematically the locking core 130 in a perspective view Fig. 5 . Here is another view of the design of the receiving space 170 with the core (pin) bore 160 continuing therein. The receiving space 170, more precisely the base space 172, is laterally delimited by flanks 178.

Fig. 8 shows schematically in a perspective view an embodiment of the scanning element 180 for the locking core 130. The scanning element 180 has a base body 181, from the inside of which two sensing projections 182 protrude approximately vertically. The tactile projections 182 are cylindrical. The tactile projections 182 are arranged diametrically opposite and spaced apart from one another on the inside. The base body 181 has the receptacle 183 centrally for receiving the core pin 21. The receptacle 183, designed as a through hole, penetrates the base body 181 from a front side section 184 of the outside 185 towards the inside 189. On the side of the outside 185 on each side there is a bevel 186, which is beveled at a first angle a to the front side section 184 adjacent. This is followed by another bevel 187, which is beveled at a second angle b. Due to the multiple bevels 186, 187, the scanning element 180 is optimized for contact with the housing pin 23 or an inner wall of the cylinder bore 120. In other embodiments, multiple slopes 186, 187 may be provided.

Fig. 9 shows the embodiment schematically in a side view Fig. 8 . Here, the contour of the base body 180 with the two bevels 186, 187, which is adapted to the circular cylindrical contour of the cylinder bore 120, can be clearly seen. The front one Page section is marked 184. The inside is marked 189. The two different sized angles a and b of the slopes 186, 187 are also shown.

Fig. 10 shows schematically in a side view another embodiment of the scanning element 180. The in Fig. 10 The scanning element 180 shown has, instead of the two bevels 186, 187, a rounded surface 186a with a radius R, which adjoins the front side section 184. Several differently rounded surfaces 186a with different radii R can also be provided.

Fig. 11 shows schematically the locking cylinder 100 in a sectioned front view Fig. 1 with a key 10 with an undercut profile rib 15a in a starting position and in a twisted position. In the starting position, the front part of the undercut profile rib 15 of the key 10 projects through the locking channel 150 over the opening into the scanning space 176. There the undercut profile rib 15a with the formed oblique projection, more precisely with the overhang 15b, presses against the sensing projection 182 of the scanning element 180 The scanning element 180 is pressed outwards accordingly and is thus flush with the outer contour of the locking core 130. At this point, no or only a minimal offset is formed in the receiving space 170, so that a housing pin 23 forced against the scanning element 180 via the compression spring 22 does not protrude into the receiving space 170 or only minimally. The core pin 21, on the other hand, is flush with the scanning element 180, so that the core pin 21 can rotate with the locking core 130, as shown on the right Fig. 11 shown based on the twisted position. The overhang 15b of the (sufficiently) undercut profile rib 15a, which is formed between the tip of the profile rib 15a and the undercut 17 of the profile rib 15a, is dimensioned such that it forces the scanning element 180 outwards accordingly, so that the locking core 130 can be rotated. Without this (sufficiently dimensioned) overhang 15b, twisting is only possible to a limited extent, as shown Fig. 12 visible.

Fig. 12 shows schematically the locking cylinder 100 in a sectioned front view Fig.1 with a key 10 without (sufficiently) undercut profile rib 15a in a starting position and in a twisted position. In the starting position the situation is still similar to the starting position in Fig. 11 . However, he contacted The tactile projection 182 is not the (insufficiently undercut) profile rib 15. The significance of the missing overhang 15b becomes apparent in the twisted situation. Due to the missing overhang 15b, the forward stop for the scanning element 180 is missing. The scanning projection 182 is forced further inwards, so that the core pin 21 protrudes beyond the scanning element 180 and an offset 179 is formed on the receiving space 170, in which the locking core 130 forced housing pin 23 penetrates. This penetration of the housing pin 23 prevents further rotation beyond the predetermined rotation angle c. The angle of rotation c can be adjusted via the geometry of the recording space 170 together with the scanning element 180. The following figures make it clear how the dimensions are to be determined to achieve the scanning function.

Fig. 13 shows schematically in a sectioned front view an embodiment of a locking core 130 with receiving space 170, base space 172, projection space 174, scanning space 176 and locking channel 150 according to Fig. 6 by 180° Fig. 6 turned. Fig. 14 shows schematically in a front view an embodiment of the scanning element 180. Fig. 15 shows schematically in a sectioned front view a key profile of the key 10 with a (sufficiently) undercut profile rib 15a, that is to say with an overhang 15b. Fig. 16 shows schematically the embodiment in a sectioned front view Fig. 11 in a starting position and in a twisted position. The steps for determining are numbered in the figures. D denotes the height of the projection space 174 from a constructive center line of the closing core 130 in the axial direction of the core (pin) bore 160 to the stop at the end of the projection space 174. E denotes the length of the projection space 174 in the axial direction. F denotes the Total height of the scanning element 170 in the axial direction of the core (pin) bore 160. G denotes the height of the sensing projection 182 in the axial direction of the core pin bore 160. I denotes a width or key shaft height I of the key 10 in the axial direction of the core pin bore 160, more precisely of the key profile. H denotes the height of the overhang 15b in the axial direction of the core pin bore 160, which, in contrast to a non-undercut profile rib 15, results from the undercut 17 and which determines the height of the stroke and thus the scanning dimension A. As in Fig. 16 If the profile rib 15 is not (sufficiently) undercut, the overhang 15b is missing, which is why the scanning element 180 can be moved by a stroke H in the receiving space 170. The receiving space 170 has the dimension H+ in the axial direction of the core pin bore 160, i.e a dimension H increased by a tolerance. This dimension H+ should be at least equal to, preferably slightly larger than, the dimension H in order to ensure that an offset is guaranteed if the profile rib 15 is not sufficiently undercut. H+ is approximately in the order of magnitude of H or A, possibly a tolerance level higher. As in Fig. 16 can be seen in the twisted position on the right, the dimension H can be found as an offset 179 on the receiving space 170. The housing pin 23 can penetrate into the receiving space 170 by this offset 179 and thus block further rotation of the locking core 130. H+ is preferably less than 20%, preferably less than 15% and preferably less than 10% larger than H.

The aforementioned variables determine the scanning function. Starting from an (inner diameter) diameter J of the closing core 130, the maximum width of the receiving space 170 must be determined. Depending on the depth of the receiving space 170, the corresponding depth of the base body 181 located therein can be determined. The offset or the flank height and thus also the stroke H also depend on the width and depth of the receiving space, which ultimately also determines the overhang 15b.

Fig. 17 shows schematically the exemplary embodiment of a locking core in a perspective view Fig. 2 with a scanning element 180 adapted to production technology. In the embodiment shown, the scanning element 180 is manufactured in one piece as a die-cast part. For manufacturing reasons, the scanning element 180 therefore has recesses 190 for the sprue and overflow during die casting. In the exemplary embodiment shown, two recesses 191 are provided on the base body 181 and one recess 192 on each tactile projection 182. The recesses 191, 192 are formed directly on the side edges, so that they break through them at the respective side edges and thus a recess 191, 192 that is open to at least one side is realized. The recesses 192 on the tactile projections 182 form a kind of chamfer at the tip of the respective tactile projection.

Fig. 18 shows schematically in a perspective view the in Fig. 17 shown, production-technically adapted scanning element 180 alone. The recesses 190 for the sprue and overflow can be clearly seen here. Each tactile projection 182 has a recess 192 at the end remote from the base body 181. The base body 181 has two diametrically opposed recesses 192.

Fig. 19 shows schematically in a different perspective view the in 17 and 18 shown, production-technically adapted scanning element 180. Except for the recesses 190, this corresponds to the Fig. 17 to 19 The scanning element 180 shown corresponds to the scanning element 180 shown in the previous figures. In Fig. 19 the recesses 192 can be clearly seen at the end of the tactile projections 182 remote from the base body 181. Due to the cylindrical design of the tactile projections 182, these are designed in a bevel-like manner.
